The material presented
here is not Al-Anon Conference Approved Literature. It is a method
to exchange
information, ideas, feelings, problems and solutions on a personal
level.
Today's reading shares about the value of the Al-anon program as a path for a better way of living. The person in this reading came to Al-anon as many do to find possible ways to stop another from drinking. Continued attendance resulted in a spiritual awakening. If they kept coming back and worked the Al-anon program they might find answers and solutions for their own life's journey. The reading states, "The steps offer me a roadmap for living that leads to a spiritual awakening and beyond."
The reading closes with this quote. "The first time I ever heard the Twelve Steps read at a meeting, I became very still. I felt I was not breathing; I was just listening with my whole being. I knew deep within me that I was home." As We Understood
Grateful for the Al-anon program and this lifelong journey of self discovery. Although I would never wish to qualify, I do belong and am grateful for a fellowship, unconditional love and support. "Together we can make it."

Thanks TT--what a lovely reading and share. And I've had exactly the same experience as the person who wrote that page--came to fix another, and am learning to fix myself, way beyond what I ever could have expected.
I'm so happy that MIP is still alive. I wonder how this has happened? And since we are, I'm hoping some other members will help to make this a place to exchange ideas as we used to do. Best to all for a peaceful Sunday.
